Sustainable and energy efficient paper industry

Pulp and paper mills are well known for their efforts to improve production efficiency. Downtime in compressed air production needs to be non-existent so that the production efficiency is not compromised. Tamturbo^® Touch-Free^™ compressors need virtually no maintenance – the intake air filters are the only part requiring replacement every few years. The remotely monitored compressor informs the operator of any maintenance needs well in advance. High-quality and 100% oil-free compressed air is required for producing high-end paper and board products. Oil or Teflon contamination on the product is not acceptable. Pulp and paper companies value responsibility both in occupational health and safety and in efficient and sustainable operations. As the Touch-Free^™ compressor does not have any oil in the system, it will not release oil into the surrounding air like other “oil-free” compressors do. The Tamturbo compressor does not add anything into the compressed air, not Teflon, oil or other hydrocarbons.

As a very energy intensive business, the demands on energy efficiency are highly valued when considering new technologies. The energy-efficient Tamturbo^® Touch-Free^™ technology saves energy and nature and does not need oil changes or produce oily waste. This helps companies reach their responsible and sustainable targets.

After many years with high-cost maintenance, fixing oil leaks, treatment of oily condensate water and recycling of waste oil, companies are looking to achieve substantial savings. Multiple pulp and paper mill companies have thoroughly analysed Tamturbo’s Touch-Free® technology, concluded the lowest life-cycle costs and taken Tamturbo^® compressors into their compressed air production, replacing screw compressors.
